Letter: Do not let White House take away our Second Amendment rights

Defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. CBS New York recently published the following:

"Amid talk of reinstating the assault weapons ban that expired eight years ago, police departments nationwide are thinking of ways to confiscate such weapons.

"As WCBS 880’s Marla Diamond reported, among the departments considering taking action is the NYPD. Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said if Congress were to reinstate the ban, police are wondering whether it will be their responsibility to confiscate them."

The Second Amendment guarantees our right to own arms to defend against all enemies. The greatest immediate threat to our liberties is the person sitting in the White House and his facilitators, who put him back into office despite his dismal record on the economy and creating an atmosphere of class warfare. His promises to redistribute wealth from those who created it to those who feel they deserve a handout without working have planted the seed of revolution.

Now comes President Obama with his creed to never miss an opportunity and in this case, to confiscate guns under the guise of making America safer. Were it not for the socialist left and their stupid support of "medical privacy," most of the killers in massacres would have been denied weapons. In the case of the Connecticut killings, Adam Lanza's mother would not have been able to keep those guns where her son could get them.

Be warned. the authorities can confiscate my guns from my cold dead hands, a confrontation that will have consequences.
